Folk with VM don't have a dish on the side of their house and are unlikely to have HD as top of their priorities (otherwise they'd go Sky). Sky customers though who want HD but baulk at the subscription costs already have a dish, so Freesat (especially a Freesat PVR alternative to Sky+) will appeal big time. Also, check out some of the Sky HD forums - there are a lot of unhappy customers there with unreliable boxes and dissatisfaction with the Sky service. "Other man's grass" and all that...

I'd go the other way. ITV, struggling for advertisig revenue, are depriving themselves of 200,000 viewers.
Digitalspy have a thread on un reliable HD freesat boxes.

i assume this is a nail in the sky coffin too as it isn't on sky?  |
It was on ITV HD, but wasn't available to Freesat HD boxes, the red button linking wasn't enabled. I watched it on a PC based receiver.
